The funniest thing I have ever seen, I was helping 3 gentleman on a late whitetail hunt, none of them had ever been whitetail hunting. I took them out in the wheat fields to a place I knew there would be some whitetail bucks. I parked the pickup in a draw and we crawled up to the top of a small rise and I looked over the other side and sure enough there were two legal bucks feeding in the next draw.
I told them to get setup. They were on their bellies and got their rifles in front of them. They had bipods and got them unfolded and setup. I told them that once spooked whitetails would not stop running full speed for 3 days so make sure you hit them the first time.
So they are all ready and it was decided that the gentleman that was to my right would shoot first then the middle would shoot and finally the left would clean up. I told them that was not a good idea, but if that was their plan go for it.
The first shooter says he is ready and told the others to get ready. He fires and misses by about a foot, as I predicted those bucks took off at 100mph and the other two shooters are trying to swing on those bipods and catch up to those running bucks, which they never did.
I though I was going to pee my pants laughing so hard. Those guys looked at me and they all made the comment about not knowing deer could run that fast. I will say though, by the end of the day they had all filled their tags. Most fun I have ever had was watching them shooting at deer.
